  1. A reversible inhibitor I is competitive with the substrate S when both have
    1. equal 1/Vmax                c. equal 1/Vmax & 1/KM
    2. equal 1/KM                         d. equal slope

  1. A reversible inhibitor I is uncompetitive with the substrate S when both have
    1. equal 1/Vmax                c. different 1/Vmax & 1/KM
    2. equal 1/KM                         d. different slope

Solutions

Expert Solution

ANSWER -

1) CORRECT OPTION IS A

explanation -

also, we have

when we compare the graph and the straight line equation for the same, we figure out that competitive inhibition occurs when inhibitor and substrate both have same Vmax

2) CORRECT OPTION IS B

and same can be figured out by comparing the graph for this inhibition

and hence the answer for the second one would be b

You have added an irreversible inhibitor to a sample of enzyme and substrate. At this point, the reaction has stopped completely?
You have added an irreversible inhibitor to a sample of enzyme and substrate. At this point, the reaction has stopped completely. What can you do to regain the activity of the enzyme? Removing the irreversible inhibitor should get the reaction working again. Adding more substrate will increase the rate of reaction. Adding more inhibitor should get the reaction up to speed again. The enzyme is inactive at this point. New enzyme must be added to regain enzyme activity.
